This has been consistent since the beginning.

60% (probably more) DO NOT want Romney.

So really, the actual conservative tally is 23.6%. Not encouraging.

"Don’t 100% not want Obama?"

Absolutely. Another issue for a later date.

Take all the past primary states and add up the percent for Gingirch and Santorum together and see where the conservative vote is.

It sure isnt for Romney. The establishment has screwed it up big time this round. They have virtually alienated the conservative base.

This may be rhetorical but, why isn’t any of the lamestream asking Mr. Romney if he might be the one in the way? Instead, even Fox trots out Mr. Pawlenty to blather about but, but, but he’s the leader. Conservatism wins. Heck even the socialists know it, that is why they always pretend to be one to win elections. You don’t see conservatives pretending to be quislings to win elections do you?

This assumes that Gingrich voters would have all voted for Santorum if Gingrich had dropped out though. Case not quite proven there. Gingrich was making a good argument that he had the experience/stature to defeat Obama and may have won votes that could have gone Romney’s way otherwise.

I'll say it again, they handed us our divorce papers years ago, we just haven't moved out yet, it is time...

it is like trying to restore a wrecked exotic car, sometimes you are better to junk it and move on.

It is time for 11.7.12 ( when we rebuild ) and "The Party of Reagan"

This is the metaphorical GOP, don't rebuild it, scrap it...

Too funny.

They’ve tried to stack the deck with their Mandate-Mitt, as a convenient way to rid themselves of “the guy who should be making them coffee “, the Undocumented-Affirmative who would never be invited to one of their parties.

And more so, what better way than to pass this off as a “GOP action”, and they are completely off the hook, without resorting to a Spector “independent” move.

No way are they going to allow him to learn “to work and move the inside machine” with another four years.

Ahhh.... AC Cobra... slobber, slobber, drool.

What a wonderful piece of engineering in it’s day.

Simplicity at it’s finest.

Well done.
